Romans 9:5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ The founders of our nation belong to them. The Messiah comes from their family line. He is God over all. May he always be praised! Amen.

God’s Free Choice

⁶ I do not mean that God’s word has failed. Not everyone in the family line of Israel really belongs to Israel. ⁷ Not everyone in Abraham’s family line is really his child. Not at all! Scripture says, “Your family line will continue through Isaac.” (Genesis 21:12)
